Elizabeth Hyatt was a Union nurse and ambulance driver during the American Civil War. Civil War serviceHyatt's service in the war began when her husband enlisted in 1861. He enlisted in the 4th Regiment of the Wisconsin Volunteers, and Hyatt found much work to do in the camp before the regiment left for battle.[1] As the regiment received orders to depart southward, Hyatt began to leave but the hospital doctor pleaded her to stay and to serve. Ultimately, Hyatt departed with the regiment to Baltimore, Maryland.[1] Hyatt served mostly in the Patterson Park Hospital in Ward 11.[1] She had twenty-two soldiers under her care at most times, but she also made it her duty to cheer up the soldiers as well. She would tell stories of Jefferson Davis's capture and the Confederacy's defeat to motivate.[1] When the regiment was ordered to Ship Island, Hyatt went with them.[2] It is here that she was deputized to drive a horse-drawn ambulance.[3] Hyatt served Ward 11 until December 1862. During this time, there was only one death under her care.[4] References1. ^1 2 3 {{cite book|last=Holland|first=Mary|title=Our Army Nurses: Stories from Women in the Civil War|location=Roseville|publisher=Edinborough Press|page=146|isbn=9781889020044}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Hyatt, Elizabeth}}{{AmericanCivilWar-bio-stub}}2. ^{{cite book|last=Holland|first=Mary|title=Our Army Nurses: Stories from Women in the Civil War|location=Roseville|publisher=Edinborough Press|page=147|isbn=9781889020044}} 3. ^{{cite book|last=Hall|first=Richard|title=Women on the Civil War Battlefront|location=Lawrence|publisher=University Press of Kansas|page=243|isbn=9780700614370}} 4. ^{{cite book|last=Holland|first=Mary|title=Our Army Nurses: Stories from Women in the Civil War|location=Roseville|publisher=Edinborough Press|page=148|isbn=9781889020044}} 3 : Women in the American Civil War|Female nurses in the American Civil War|American Civil War nurses |
